My Journey

September is almost gone and my writing has again been poor.  Not writing does not mean that nothing important is happening...it means I have been Busy!  I will try to show you the work in pictures with just a few words. These are the "behind the scenes" guys.  The estate workers.  Some are carpenters, plumbers, electricians, mechanics, ditch workers and machine shop workers.  They work wherever needed.  I can keep them busy by myself and yet I am only one of many who require their help daily!  Pediatric patients lining up for physician rounds.   Paulina, a med student from Germany and Dr. Peter seeing pediatric patients   Leda keeps our medical stores in order.  She and I are planning to put the inventory on computer and design a more efficient system for ordering supplies each month.  Currently it is taking two - three days to determine what supplies are needed. This is the out-patient waiting area.  Mondays and Tuesdays are usually the busiest.

WOW!  REALLY!  Has it been that long since I sent you an update??!! I promise that I have NOT been on vacation or takin` it easy..... We have been working on a lot of organizational and accounting issues for the past 3 weeks as well as continuing to improve the hospital environment.  In accounting, we are working on a better general ledger spreadshead which will assist us with keeping a closer eye on our income and expenses.  Also, we are developing a new system for our Outpatient accounts where the monies will be collected in the accounting department instead of in the pharmacy.  We would like for our pharmacist to be focused on pharmacy and not accounting functions AND it is wiser to have the monies all collected in the same secure area. To accomplish the Outpatient Accounting changes, we are making some minor updates and changes to the accounting office.  We are adding a second collection window so we will have one window for Inpatient Accounting and a second one for Outpatient
